London, UK – remote ok, but local much preferred<p>Our web start-up, which indeed is innovative and focuses on providing students with course media at cheapest prices, looks for a Web Developer to become our Technical Director.
We got accepted into an accelerator programme and already have customers and a working prototype / “Minimum Viable Product”.
With your help, we want to develop the full product. You would start with your own distinct modules, and your responsibilities can then increase from there.<p>Technical Skills: 
- Java or other OOP experience 
- Google Web Toolkit (... would be ideal!) 
- Knowledge of SQL<p>Location and Timing:
The accelerator programme will last from April to June in London,UK. This will be an intense time of focused working, and a physical presence would be preferable especially then. However, we are open to discuss remote work, in case you can provide the corresponding references of previous work you have done<p>Contact Nils:  
nfrers "at" gmail.com<p>Please include in your note:
- whether you have a webdesigner you are working with
- what work arrangement you are offering (Full-time employee, part-time employee, freelance / limited time contract work)
- what remuneration option you would prefer: (flat fee for work scope, flat rate per month, hourly rate, stock options only)

text: SEEKING FREELANCERS - Seattle or Remote (NA hours required - we're on Pacific Time)<p>We're looking for a few freelancers for different clients.<p>1) Ruby/Rails developer, primarily front-end development: clear knowledge of view layer, highly detail-oriented. SASS/Compass knowledge useful for some roles. Could be short-term (think a month or two) or ongoing.<p>2) Python/Django development, full stack. Seattle better for this one. Have a 2-3 month project that's well-specified but needs someone to own and develop. Need experience building out full-stack applications, not just brochureware.<p>For all of these, need great evidence and references for your self-starting and self-managing capabilities, to keep clients happy.<p>Happy to tell you much more if you send a note: you can find me at scott at roosterpark dot com - and you can check out our site and see that we're legit. Individuals only, of course.

text: SEEKING FREELANCERS - Remote - Frontend - Javascript, HTML, CSS<p>I'm looking for a number of people who are interested in freelance work in (primarily) JS.  Remote is fine, prefer full time (or close) availability. The development will be using our API and the Google Closure library (exp not required).  A strong background in JS/HTML/CSS is needed.<p>There are a large number of projects available and they require little coordination, so they are pretty ideal for remote freelancing.<p>Contact me at tjanofsky at monetate if you're interested or have any questions.<p>Thanks!
